Ghana The Motherland, the pacesetter

In 2009 Ghana became the first and only African country to win the U20 World by beating Brazil in the final.

In 2025 Ghana's UDS (University of Development studies) has once become the first african university to win the University World championships by beating Brazil in the final

Educate Slippery Fella!

Imagine that team had Lara, Chanderpaul, Richardson, Adams, and lost to Kenya in the longer version ODI . Yet the Sky is falling as Nepal beat an inexperienced and under-prepared WI-C team in a T20I.

These one-offs happen.

Sammy and Bascombe just do not have the experience to be in charge of an international team.
My beef is the complete disregard for cricket development in the area.
Point uses to blame the Hilly conditions and is not able to have club structures like Barbados and the other Islands.
As I watched Dominica a few years ago, I saw talented players who are not seen.
Where are the Windward Island tournaments? Every format should be played to identify every player.
I have been saying for some time, these Islands should be competing alone.
Sandford showed us how it is done.
